I admit to being a bit puzzled by the leftist outrage over President Trump’s proposed DACA deal. I fail to see anything “racist” about providing a pathway to citizenship for over a million illegal aliens (or in any of the other proposed provisions).

The Washington Free Beacon reports:
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) on Friday castigated the White House’s newly released immigration reform proposal as a “campaign to make America white again.”Her comments came the day after the White House released a framework for immigration reform that proposes a pathway to citizenship for 1.8 million young illegal immigrants in exchange for $25 billion to go toward a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border and other border-security measures.Speaking at the United States Conference of Mayors, Pelosi blasted the framework with racially-charged rhetoric, suggesting that the White House plan seeks to hurt minority groups.”Let me just say what I said last night: that plan is a campaign to make America white again,” Pelosi said, claiming that the proposal will cut legal immigration by 50 percent.
